I love you and your story, Molly! I want to farm soooo bad! I usually have a garden every summer and I use to have a garden with my Mom when I was little. We also had an apple and crabapple tree. We canned, made applesauce and jelly. My Mom grew up on a farm. She had pigs, chickens and horses. They lived on this long road that was named after them with only their farm and another house besides their farmhouse. The road was named after them. Anyways, I wish I could have my own farm now, but it's a long story. Some day I will, but I feel the need right now. You are sooo lucky. I envy you!
